Chapter 71: Hand in hand
As a senior strategy player, Nanke knows a truth.
If you want to be brainless and reckless in the later stage, you need to occupy more mines in the early stage.
From the level of war, war is a struggle for resources and money.
Whether it is the food and drink that soldiers need on weekdays, and the armor and crossbow that increase their combat effectiveness.
All of these things need to be purchased with money, or they can be forged by collecting materials.
If the basic equipment can't keep up, when you fight with people, it's like a civilian player meeting a god tyrant, which is not a grade at all.
Therefore, the discovery of this mineral deposit in Wulingpo is a great news for Nanke.
At least with this deposit, it can help Nanke save a lot of money.
After he has supplied his own 500 soldiers, he may be able to sell some of them.
Thinking of this, Nan Ke became excited. What's more, he couldn't wait to go to Wulingpo to have a look.
It was at this moment that Nan Ke suddenly remembered that he couldn't break his word again and again.
Then he said to Bai Shuyu: "I have some important things to deal with today, so I won't go to Wulingpo with you to investigate this mineral deposit, and I will leave this matter to you!"
In addition, Yongping County has changed a bit a bit in the past few days, so you can appropriately slow down the speed of suppressing bandits a little and start recruiting new soldiers! It's best to persuade the bandits around you to be good and live well. In this way, they can also surrender without a fight. ”
Bai Shuyu nodded when he heard the words and said, "I understand!" However, we need a lot of labor to mine this iron mine, and we are afraid that some of the current people in our Dingzhou army are not enough. I'll have to find another way! ”
"For example?" Nanke asked.
"I think the bandits and robbers captured from all over the world in the past few days are the best labor." Bai Shuyu replied.
"Hey, they're really the best workforce." Nanke nodded in agreement.
What is hard labor is not to drag these criminals to a certain place and force them to work to atone for their previous mistakes.
In modern terms, it is labor reform.
Since so many criminals have been caught, and they are raised for nothing every day, it is better to send them all to mining.
"Then you're going to say hello to Hu Zhixian?" Bai Shuyu asked tentatively.
When Nan Ke heard this, he took out a fish talisman from his body and handed it to Bai Shuyu, and said, "You can go and talk to him yourself, and he won't dare to push back." ”
This fish talisman is actually one of the tokens that prove Nan Ke's identity.
As the prince of the Light Dynasty, when he was canonized, there were not only edicts, python robes and jade belts, but also goldfish talismans that represented his noble status.
The fish talisman is divided into two parts, one for the holder and one for the dynasty backup.
This thing was also used in Nan Ke's memory, and he still remembered that in the era of Wu Zetian, he used his surname Wu to secretly combine Xuanwu, and replaced all the fish talismans at that time with turtle-shaped turtle talismans.
It also distinguishes the official position with gold, silver and bronze as the rank, and the golden turtle charm is the most noble.
Therefore, the rich and noble families at that time thought that it was best to find a son-in-law with a golden turtle talisman, also known as the golden turtle son-in-law.
At this moment, after Nan Ke handed over his goldfish talisman to Bai Shuyu, Bai Shuyu could also hold this talisman and handle many things on his behalf.
After explaining this matter, Nan Ke asked Su Youmeng to prepare, and they set off for Dawan Lake.
Not long after, a carriage, escorted by many knights, left Yongping County all the way north.
After passing the turtle passing, we went straight to Dawan Lake on the side of Daliang Mountain.
Compared with Nan Ke's poor travel, Su Youmeng's travel battle finally has the appearance of some big people.
Originally, Nan Ke only had the qualifications to ride, but in view of his "meritorious" efforts to suppress bandits and his injuries, Su Youmeng reluctantly let him share a car with him.
The carriage was covered with thick furs, and in the middle of it was a small table with some fruit and parchment water bags for drinking.
Although the incense was not lit at this time, there was still a faint fragrance in the car.
Nan Ke, as an old oilman who has been a man for two lives, is nothing, sitting in it with a big grin, looking at Su Youmeng from time to time.
On the other hand, Su Youmeng stayed in this small space with Nan Ke, but he was a little shy and restrained, and his previous pride disappeared.
All that was left was the red neck and the head that was lowered.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Nan Ke took the initiative to speak: "Why do you think about going to Dawan Lake?" In fact, there are many places in Yongping County that have very good scenery. ”
"Because I want to see what Dawan Lake looks like because of love and reluctance." Su Youmeng raised his head and said excitedly.
Nan Corden was a little speechless.
Just like many places of interest, you have to make up a story about your origin.
The same is true for Dawan Lake and Xiaowan Lake in Yongping County.
It is said that there was a king named Jun who came to Yongping County with his subordinates to defend against foreign enemies, but there was no news for many years.
His two wives, Da Wan and Xiao Wan, were sick and came to look for him.
When they came to Yongping, they learned that Jun had died of illness on the journey, and this sudden bad news also made Dawan and Xiaowan cry bitterly.
In the end, we cried blood and tears on the bank of Liangshan Mountain, turning into this Dawan Lake and Xiaowan Lake.
And this legend also gives Nan Ke a feeling of déjà vu.
Although Nanke wanted to tell her that all the mountains and lakes were formed because of the great changes in the heavens and the earth, or artificial excavation. There is no such thing as a lake when you die.
But he still had to nod seriously: "Yes! Dawan Lake is indeed very beautiful, standing by the lake gives people a poignant scene as if they have traveled through thousands of years and seen Dawan and Xiaowan. ”
"It's a pity that the story of Dawan and Xiaowan is too sad to grow old with the people they love." Su Youmeng seemed to think of the poignant legend again, and sighed lightly.
"Sometimes, feelings are predestined, do you know physiognomy?"
"Physiognomy?" Su Youmeng asked.
"Physiognomy is to infer the auspicious fortune through people's appearance, bones, complexion, posture and hand prints, etc., and even the emotional line can be inferred. Among them, the observation of the complexion is also a kind of wangqi, and it is also extended in the medical way, which is a kind of looking, hearing, and inquiring. Nanke continued to grin.
"And will you?" Su Youmeng asked with wide eyes.
"I know a little bit about it."
Nan Ke said and squeezed Su Youmeng's little hand in his hand, which was like a boneless little hand, a little cool.
When she was caught by Nan Ke, Su Youmeng was obviously a little nervous and wanted to take it back, but when she found that she couldn't pull it back, she could only let Nan Ke squeeze her little hand, and then looked at Nan Ke curiously.
After a long while, Nan Ke still had no intention of letting go.
Su Youmeng asked cautiously, "Do you see anything?" ”
"Hmm...... This hand is so beautiful! ”
